Prolouge – (Out-of-date)Advertisment
Suppose that in the future, gaming systems had increased in quality to the point where a person didn’t just see the game, hear it, move and the character moved, or any combination of the above, but they quite literally were injected into the base game template, ceasing to exist in real life but for a backup genetic copy, any number of which could then be sent into the game to assist if necessary. Complete loss would eject them back into reality. Of course, to the outer physical world, no time passed at all but in the player’s mind. This technology might be wildly popular in the future, possibly, but the future is now. At least, somewhat. A group of eleven of the best young video gamers will be chosen to test this new technology. Over varied games they may go, but the overall experience they had will be the detemining factor in if this is mass produced. Will you be one of those first eleven, who leads the charge?

Episode One Recap:
The players found themselves as various video game characters shortly after entrance to the system. Half an hour later, in both their and real times, an elecrical mishap brought them – and their worlds – together into one new, strange world. They have completed various quests, all become Level 99 (the highest attainable level – at least for now), recently christened themselves VG, and descended into a fissure an earthquake left. Here is where the story picks up once more.

For some odd reason, there seem to be recurring peals of thunder as we go down. This really doesn’t make sense…what’s even stranger is that I can’t pass through the walls.

Detailed Player Information:
Jake

Link
No description really necessary. From Legend of Zelda.
No special abilities, just a sword, and a tunic stuffed with awesome items.
Jaye

Miles ‘Tails’ Prower
Orange two-tailed fox, origin of mutation unknown. Appears in pretty much every Sonic game since the second.
Flight, Swimming, Technological Knowledge & Ability.
Other relevant information: I like pancakes? Has astrophobia.
Nara
Gandrayda
11
Primarily purple, female. Appears in Metroid Prime: Corruption
Shapeshifting, [and from what I can gather] limited energy wave projection attacks.
No exact age, as ability to alter shape makes it utterly impossible to judge. However, psychologically, tests put her age around a child’s.
Leo
17
Samus
Metroid
Arm cannons, her energy beam, and different element rockets.
She is almost always wearing her suit, but she can take it off if she wants.
Richard
Mr. Moneybags

Monopoly
Very rich and can bankrupt you. Can also send you to jail.
Paul

Mechafighter(Human controlled mech)
Robokill
Can use weapons others simply cannot carry or use.
Can use up to 4 weapons and can mount up to 4 shield recharges or other addons.
Chris Crippler.

Ichigo Kurosaki
Orange hair, is a soul reaper, from Bleach. (He does have a video game.)
His ability is San Getsu, and his Bankai. And turning into Hollow Ichigo.
Basically from Bleach.
Alex Rushman
14
Giygas
Looks somewhat similar to Mewtwo, but without a mouth as such…this gives a better description of him. Can be found in Mt. Itoi in Mother 1.
Character Abilities: A variety of PSI and PK abilities, including PSI Starstorm and PSI Rockin.
The Giygas from Mother 1, which has self control and is still powerful, unlike the Giygas from Mother 2: Earthbound, which has no self control whatsoever and is goddamn creepy anyways.

Extremely powerful, good at digging.
(Insert irrelevant info here) Guardian of the Chaos Emeralds, just happens to have them with him all the time for safety these days.
Seth

Sonic the Hedgehog
Blue hedgehog. ‘Nuff said. Has own game series and appears in a whole bunch of games.

There’s a lot of irrelevant information, but nothing I know of to put here right now.
Matt
16
Carl Johnson
Black, about 6’ in height and pretty athletic, wearing a white tank top, a green hoodie and green jeans. GTA:SA.
Can run great distances, easily beating triathlons, drive any car, fly anything, operate anything, and shoot pretty much everything too, from pistols through rocket launchers to double sawn-off shotguns. And reload quickly. And store pretty much everything from the above on him too. It’s surprising what can he do…
None.
Jeremiah

Shadow the Hedgehog
Jet black hedgehog with some red outlining; appears in a lot of Sonic games though I couldn’t name them all.

Awesome parkour tricks, and assasination.
Nope not really.

[Gosh, my head hurts…I’ll update regardless.]
_TP_
VG now faces a dead end – a wall of sandstone which has the qualities of supercompressed carbon – engraved with some runes. It seems that perhaps each person should take one of the fourteen power cores (how they got there is anyone’s guess) from the wall. The runes read as follows:
[Moved for formatting.]
The only apparent connection is that an energy core must be with someone in front of each rune.
[Translate if you will. Beware – I have the only _true_ cipher key, though, which is along these lines…

Too long; didn’t read? Don’t blame you. You would have to look long and hard for this. Might be useful, though…]

_Tails_
Having taken one of the power cores, I start looking over the symbols. I recognise most of these…
_Jaye_
I’m fairly confident I can fill in the blanks, so I start wondering what the strange paragraph carved in English means. I have an idea of what it might, but it’s a bit too confusing to confirm. I stand in front of the tenth rune and hope for the best, inadvertently crossing my fingers _and_ my tails.

_Knuckles_
_Oh, heck, I don’t recognise these foriegn languages._
_Luke_
_Neither do I._ I reflect on the fact that I’m comminicating with my other self for the first time. _I don’t think we’ve officially met…name’s Luke._
_Knuckles_
_Knuckles the Echidna, at your service. Most of the time, that is. Do you have any thoughts on which of these to use?_
_Luke_
_I think we should use the third. It’s, regarded as a lucky practice in many cultures._
_Knuckles_
_Perhaps…we should work in a unified manner, though._
_Luke_
_How so?_
_Knuckles_
_On the count of three, focus on me. I’ll do the same for you. I think it’ll make a difference, though I don’t know why._
_Luke_
_Okay…1…2…3!_
_Luke/Knuckles_
_What just happened?_
_It seems we are as one._
_Hmmm. Well, let’s just get to the rune._
We (?) pick up a power core and stand in front of the third symbol.
